Best of the best from Australia !!

Beautiful Australian Black Opal ...

Black Opal is a precious gem stone which is found only in Australia in the past 100 years. 

This is quite a recent find compare to other gems. 

The production of Black Opal has been dramatically reduced in the past 10 years. 

This is because Black Opal is extremely difficult to find and many Lightning Ridge (Black Opal field) miners 

have left the field with empty pockets. 

It is now almost impossible to run the machinery due to the high cost of petrol, as well as all other expenses.

So we hope you'll treat your black opal from 

Lightning Ridge extra careful & love. 

Money can not replace this beauty.

Guaranteed !!

Souvenir from Lightning Ridge (^^)

As I've mentioned earlier, my partner and I went to Lightning Ridge a week before and it was another quick trip as usual.

Saw some friends who are still mining in the Sheepyard & Grawine field, digging non-stop and if they find one nice piece of black opal, they'd run to the pub and exchange it with some cold beers (haha) !!

If you think I am joking, just go and visit the mine and see it for yourself.

You'll understand what I mean ... and you'll probably want to join them for a drink & some laughters.

Love their spirit anyway !!!

Not much of luck ...

Although we could not find many quality materials at the field, we've managed to purchase some "Red On Black" in Lightning Ridge town.

Also there was one copy of this amazing opal book at Information Centre (A$45), we grabbed it and asked for more at the counter.

Unfortunately this copy seems to be the last one available. Pity, some buyers of ours would love to have it, if there's more available.  

Running and digging - enjoyed beautiful sunrise & sunset while driving. Had more beers after arrived back in our cabin

Too rare, too dear.

Anyway, enough of my talk.

Cheers everyone !!!

Gold Coast is perfect today, not too hot or cold.

Love my life involving with 

beautiful Australian opals ...

GEMS from Japan !!

Amazing Firework in Japan ...

It's beauty and powerful image reminds me of some beautiful Australian black opals. 

The color is unstoppable !!!

First, gold.

Then it changes to another, 

you can not predict what will come next and that's a wonderful thing about the firework.

Just like the "color play" in opal, right ??!!?

They come and go, keeps changing its characters. 

Love all the shape, pattern, different sizes, vivid colors 

and its preciousness ...   

I am enjoying the summer in Japan now, 

participating opal shows from time to time and attempting 

to promote more through online as well.

But what's more, I am so happy to see and learn more of Japanese culture, being able to wear Kimono and attending to the summer event, to see THIS GEM !!!  

Life is too precious ...

Don't stop, keep walking forward ...

Work hard & Play hard (^^)

Missing a blue sky in Gold Coast too !!!

Anyway, cheers from Japan for now.
